Remember what happened in the LA riots. The Korean store owners started shooting the looters. Guess where the mob quickly left.

Do you really think that they would allow this now? I believe there would be SWAT teams sent to take out the Korean grocers today.

If past behavior is the best predictor of future behavior, I have to disagree:

In the L.A. riots, police withdrew and left the citizens to their own devices.

In Baltimore, police withdrew and left the citizens to their own devices.

Im Ferguson, police withdrew and left the citizens to their own devices.

What indication do we have things would be different now?

Cops are people too. If a mob is running loose in a neighborhood, threaten families, I doubt they would mind too terribly much if the mob was “thinned.”
